- Local Happening
About seventeen years ago a lorry of soldiers arrived in the town of Glin. A heap of stones was piled across the road about half a mile to the west of Glin. The soldiers were going towards Tarbert and they could go no further when they were stopped by the heap of stones. The soldiers turned back to Glin again and made the Glin people take away the stones and throw them into the Shannon at the opposite side of the road.
